Wired or wireless??

I am trying to add Unblockr to my Firestick. The directions ask if I have a wired or unwired connection. I am not sure, so here is what I know:

1. My smart TV has wireless internet but is connected to a power line to be able to connect to the router for Tivo itself. Is that considered wired internet?

2. The second TV is not a smart TV so I am assuming that is not wired because it doesn't even have the internet. That will be remedied by adding the fire stick dongle eventually. Waiting for that second fire stick.

Any help in explaining this to me in layman's terms would be appreciated.

Thanks.

 

Right, I know that in general. What made me a little confused is that the power line connected to the TV for the Tivo needs another power line connected to the router with an ethernet type jack. That's why I thought maybe it would be considered wired at this point. I need that cleared up before I proceed. Thanks.

 

I'm not sure exactly what you are implying, but I think then that I should follow the directions for a wired device? I hope I've chosen wisely.

 

Nothing except that I have Tivo and use a power line to download the shows. I knew someone here would have the answer as to whether the power line meant that I was using a wired internet or not since it is connected to my router and my Smart TV.

 

Thank you. That's what I needed to know.

 

Thank you, I am starting to get the picture now.

 

The fire stick is connected via HDMI on my TV which is connected to the power line adaptors for Tivo downloads. So, that's why I was wondering if the Firestick would inadvertently be connected to all that and be considered wired. An answer to that question would settle it for me.

 

I know, and I am sorry that I am not able to completely grasp this. If I had not used the power adaptor lines for the Tivo, I would know that the Firestick was wireless for sure. But since it is connected to the TV which is connected to the powerline for the Tivo downloads, I wasn't sure if it was working independently or not and thus wireless.

 

So you would consider the Firestick wireless at this point? I am getting different answers from different places. Grrrrr! Lots to learn.

Thanks.

 

Thanks. Yes, I know it's wireless normally. I just didn't know if it would still be considered wireless if connected to a TV that is connected to a power line adapter which is like having ethernet.
